IRRC 2027: Five race weekends, ten races and the final in Frohburg

In mid-September, the champions of the International Road Racing Championship (IRRC) were crowned at the Frohburg Triangle. In the newly created Sportbike class, Jamie Williams from the Isle of Man came out on top against Wally Jacobs from the Netherlands and Patrik Serbousek from the Czech Republic. In the Supersport category, the title went for the seventh time to the Czech rider Marek Cerveny, who finished ahead of his compatriots Petr Najman and Matej Vit.

Thanks to more than two decades of experience working with the event organisers, the organisers of this road racing series – now popular throughout Europe – are able to present the calendar for the coming season just seven weeks after the final round. Riders, teams and fans can therefore already start planning for 2027.

Next year, too, the champions will be decided over five weekends, each featuring two races. The season opener will take place in early May in Hengelo (Netherlands), where the first two races will be held on the 4.878-kilometre-long Varsselring. Three weeks later, the series will visit the Horice natural race track for the first time. Following a seven-week break, the racing circus will head to the foothills of the Czech Giant Mountains for the second time.

Chimay (Belgium) will be the fourth venue of the 2027 IRRC on the last weekend in July. On the ultra-fast circuit there, the battle for one or other of the IRRC titles could already be decided before the final is held, as is traditional, in Germany in mid-September on the 4.8-kilometre-long Frohburger Dreieck.
